This is a fragment of a conference given by Fernando Parro a survivor of the Andes' plane crash 36 years after it who had to eat death human meat to survive :

“Businesses are important,
Jobs are important too
But the most valuable thing in life is at home: FAMILY.

My life had changed and the most valuable thing I lost was my family that I had not anymore once I got back home.

Do not neglect who you have by your side because you do not know what is going to happen tomorrow.

NOTHIN IN LIFE JUSTIFIES THE NEGLECTING OF A FAMILY.

If you do have a loving home, think as I do that you are a LUCKY person!!.

You are traveling on the file # 9 and believe me most people travel on behind the number 9 file.

(The one who survived where traveling up to file 9)

pedro27: i mean if your plane crashed and you were miles away from rescue, like the film ''alive'' would you eat another human?

I read the book many years ago, excellent read and how sad that it actually happened and being a soccer fan at the time thought wow who would have seen that curve ball coming. After I read the book I asked myself the question you posted..back then my answer was sliding towards yes as I had young children,now my answer would be no.

Yes. I would also hope that if I had no chance of living in such a situation, my friends would eat me to survive.

its kind of easy to sit here with a full belly and say i wouldn't.
i'd like to think i wouldn't.

i will say that your logic and thinking changes
more dramatically than you might imagine after being hungry
for a while.

i was in a situation once where i didn't eat for about two weeks.
i found myself literally hating people that were
entering a restaurant, just because i knew
they were going to go in,
sit down, order food, and eat.

there was still a small part of my brain telling me,
"hey, you know this isn't logical, right?"

but the rest of my brain was filled with venom.

i wonder how many more days it would have taken
for the rest of my brain to kill off
what remained of the logical part.

I am a vegetarian-its the cows that you all eat that need more pasture/corn that emit more methane gas that pollutes the atmosphere.
